Posting Back: Week 3

Hello!
This weeks Post Secrets were very oriented in their sensitivity as usual. We had some very funny ones- some very sensitive ones- and some very that were rather creepy. Make sure to go check out the postsecrets for yourself.


The first one reminded of a conversation I had with a friend back in High School. This very exuberent and energetic, conservative cheerleader friend of mine expressed to me that she has hugged her mother once her whole life and her dad none at all. It astonished me! I guess things are different for other families. But my family was always nothing but hugs and kisses every time we part. It just blows my mind.



I use to draw all of the time. It was one of my favorite things to do. But over the last year I found myself doing it less and less. And its almost complicated now. I don't quite understand it.




I miss being ridicously ticklish. =[




I thought that this was pretty funny. I mean who wouldn't do this if that had the access to an ex's condom stash?!

And thats my choices for this week. Hope you all enjoyed them, and i hope for some comments. =]

Posting Back: Week 2

This weeks post were pretty bland. None of them really threw me off guard or gave me a chill. There were some funny ones though. Make sure to go and check them out for yourself. www.postsecret.com




Who hasn't freaked out when someone didn't reply back quick enough to a text? I kind of have an intense texting addiction. Like coc-heads to their coc, there is Ethan to his cell phone, never seperated and always texting.




Sadly, I have to say I agree with this post secret. I still can't fathom the fact that one day I too will die. I don't understand death at all and I think its impossible to become completely non-exsistant. Your energy must go somewhere, energy can not be destroyed. But anywho, I thought that it was interesting.




This one just kind of opened my ideas and thought about the different reasons why drug addicts do the things they do.




If you have never watched people in traffic, then you really must try it. And maybe even ponder, where are they going?




This one reminded me of when i went on a trip to Austraila in High School. We spent three weeks there and on the last night all the "in" crowd of the group went to one of the hotel rooms for a final party. Upon me and my roomates arriving I noticed that one of the girls from my high school was on the bed undercovers with a guy. And there was a good idea of the dirty deed they were up to. I come to find out she lost her virginity that night. Which now I'm kind of jealous. She had a crazy experience in Austraila, when else will that chance every happen?




I just thought that this one was funny. It had to of been an AMAZING night!

Posting Back: This Weeks Post Secrets.

Hello! A lot of this weeks post secrets seemed to hit home for me. Which made me feel good.Like I said before, makes you feel like your not the only person out there who is struggling, who has those issues.

I'll start with this one. Fo some reason I believe that this is becoming pretty common. If I were to get married I'd also would get a secret account. With todays economy who could afford a divorce and not have something as back up? And it would be quite the slam when you tell your fellow divorce that you'll be fine because you have plenty of money thats been hidden away from them for the last couple years.





Next. I had to post this one. You might think its T.M.I. but don't knock it till you try it. Going commando can be fun!




I also had to display this one. Seeing how this is a blog, and it just makes sense. People that post all their info. on a blog and then are amazed to see someone who fascinatingly knows everything about them. I've seen this done.




This one seemed to strike home with me. The economy right now scares me tremendously. I have never been poor or anything. Always had money for what i needed and mostly what i wanted. But since I've moved out my bank account has depleited a lot, and its scares the hell out of me. I'm one of those few people that believe money can buy you happiness. I mean how can it not when we live in a world where everything is for sale. Not being able to go out and buy a new movie based on the fact that i want it and having to keep tabs on my money has been driving me crazy!




Lastly is this one. This post secret really did me in. I've been dating someone for seven months now and after our five i was told that there was still feelings for the ex. I was very upset by this seeing how "in love" I was. So we decided that we would wait until the feelings became mutual. But my feelings have seemed to vanish. Maybe because of the hurt i was put through, I'm not sure. But now the significant other is getting those feelings for me. Now I see myself saying "I wish we could have loved each other at the same times." Maybe Ashley can help me with this one.

Posting Back: A Post Secret Blog

Hello. My name is Ethan Ridenbaugh. My blog subject for this class is PostSecret. But even more so inclusive Postsecret.com. Post Secret has been around for a number of years. It started as a public art experiment and has been ever since growing. Post Secret is a constantly building colaberation of Post Cards all over the world. People all over the world share their secrets in an artistic form on a post card. In a way this brings unity to the world. In some way or another a person feels alone at some point and a person sharing their secret anonomously gifts a person with the idea that their not alone in the world. And when you share a secret with the world, but keep your identity hidden you would feel like you are giving yourself a clean slate and nothing to hide. Which makes a person feel better about themselves. Since the project began the owner of the experiment Frank Warren, has published four books and travels all over the United States. He travels to museums and exhibits displaying and explaining the importance of secrets. How in away secrets make up a part of us. And what sharing and hearig a secret means, how peronble that is. Some of these secrets show the most personal sides of a persons life, while others maybe humorous in nature. And there is no experience like reading post secrets along with someone. If its either to laugh together or symapthize together. I love sharing my Post Secret books with my friends. They are always enjoyable to talk about and always tend to tug at your interest. So each week i plan to give my ideas and opinions on that weeks post secret post, or post secret in general. I will be sharing which ones i find humoring, along with ones that I might relate to.
